I see the world like lightning, I see the perfect storm
I see the violets blooming, I see the path that's worn
I choose a new direction, my insides are torn
For all I see is roses, and all they give is scorn
And I, I couldn't be what they wanted
And I, I'm better on hidden than haunted
Chimpanzee
But instead it just simply exists
I am a boy, I am an alchemist
I will show and tell, I'll tell the story's truth
I will see it all
I won't waste my youth
I ain't leather bound
I am big and big
I sit at the altar
Right with a golden tooth
And I, I couldn't be what they wanted
And I
I'm better on hidden than haunted
Choosing the light instead of just it simply exists
I am a boy, I am an alchemist
And I, I couldn't be what they wanted
And I, I'm better unheeded than wanted
Chosen, enlightened, stated, just to simply exist
I am a poet, I am an alchemist
I am a poet, I am an alchemist
